According to the Telecommunication Industry Association US businesses spent over 403 billion dollars on local and long distance telephone service and equipment in 2005. That number only represents the cost of one part of the voice and data equation. When you add in the cost of data, that equation becomes a black hole for a lot of businesses. It is a safe assumption that the final totals for 2006 will be even higher. Regardless of the totals, all industry experts agree that, if your business has not performed a telecom audit in the last 12 months there is a 90% chance that you are over paying sometimes by as much as 20-40%. The only way to really know is to hire a Telecom Consulting company to do an audit of your entire system. That’s why!

The only problem with that is the fact that there are a lot of Telecom Consulting firms out there. Every single one of them will tell you they are the best, but how do you determine who really is the best?!?

The ultimate test would be to find one that is willing to “put its money where its mouth is” and offer its service for free until it finds you savings. Yeah, right you say! Well, Network Mapping Associates is one such company…..
